Graphene-based, flexible NO(2) sensors on paper substrates exhibited an immediate response (32-39%) once exposed to 200 ppm NO(2) gas under a strain of 0.5%. Chemical vapor deposition-grown graphene with a supporting poly(methyl methacrylate) layer was transferred onto paper substrates, followed by formation of two electrodes using silver paste. Current-voltage characteristics and dynamic sensing response were obtained under both relaxed and strained conditions. We demonstrate a facile method without complex photo-lithography and high vacuum processes for fabricating graphene-based flexible NO(2) sensors on paper substrates with high sensing response.

Exciton Emission Enhancement in Two-Dimensional Monolayer Tungsten Disulfide on a Silicon Substrate via a Fabry-Pérot Microcavity.

Exciton emitters in two-dimensional monolayer transition-metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) provide a boulevard for the emerging optoelectronic field, ranging from miniaturized light-emitting diodes to quantum emitters and optical communications. However, the low quantum efficiency from limited light-matter interactions and harmful substrate effects seriously hinders their applications. In this work, we achieve a ∼438-fold exciton photoluminescence enhancement by constructing a Fabry-Pérot cavity consisting of monolayer WS and a micron-scale hole on the SiO/Si substrate.

Spatial changes in benthic community structure have been observed across natural gradients in deep-sea ecosystems, but these patterns remain under-sampled on seamounts. Here, we identify the spatial composition and distribution of coral and sponge taxa on four sides of a single central Pacific equatorial "model" seamount within the US EEZ surrounding the Howland and Baker unit of the Pacific Islands Heritage Marine National Monument. This seamount rises from 5,000 + m to mesophotic depths of 196 m, and is influenced by the Equatorial Undercurrent.

Metabolic reprogramming of purine biosynthesis is a hallmark of cancer metabolism and represents a critical vulnerability. The enzyme phosphoribosylformylglycinamidine synthase (PFAS) catalyzes the fourth step in de novo purine biosynthesis and has been demonstrated to be prognostic for survival of liver cancer. Despite the importance of this protein as a drug target, there are no known specific inhibitors of PFAS activity.

Polysaccharides, found universally in all living-species, exhibit diverse biochemical structures and play crucial roles in microorganisms, animals, and plants to defend against pathogens, environmental stress and climate-changing. Microbial exopolysaccharides are essential for cell adhesion and stress resilience and using them has notable advantages over synthetic polysaccharides. Exopolysaccharides have versatile structures and physicochemical properties, used in food systems, therapeutics, cosmetics, agriculture, and polymer industries.

Chitinase plays a role in mammalian immune responses, particularly in the degradation of fungal cell walls. The aim of the present study was to express and characterize recombinant mouse chitotriosidase (Chit1) and acidic mammalian chitinase (AMCase) without the ZZ domain, a domain that may interfere with immunological analyses. We successfully expressed recombinant chitinases without the ZZ domain (Chit1-V5-His and AMCase-V5-His) as a soluble protein from an expression vector pET21a in the Escherichia coli Rosetta-gami B (DE3) strain.
